Understanding the Pictures

In pairs, discuss what each of the following pictures signifies, communicates or represents.

Picture #1

This picture shows people standing in multiple groups. They all have unique personal traits. They are wearing dresses of different design, and their skin is of different color.

But living together they form a community. This results into the formation of individuals from small communities to big tribes and even countries. One single similar thing among them gives them a special identity among the whole world.

Relating it to the lesson “Living Together”, we can say that the people in this image highlight the concept of global community and interconnectedness.

Picture #2

This picture shows two little girls walking up a pedestrian rampage. One is white, and the other is of black skin color. But heir hearts within their bodies are the same. Influenced by this bond of humanity, they are walking together along the path.

The white girls is holding the black girl by hand, posing a sign of friendship. It is a symbol of unity and friendship.

More precisely, this picture also connects to the lesson. It symbolizes friendship, innocence, and racial harmony. It shows how children naturally accept and support each other, regardless of racial differences.

Picture #3

This picture shows four hands holding each other on the wrist. They are white, wheatish, brown, and black. Together they make a symbol of social harmony and peaceful co-existence.

This picture tells us the value of living together. We can prosper and make this world a paradise when we support each other despite all the natural differences we are born with.

The different skin tones of the hands in this picture emphasize the importance of working together and supporting each other, regardless of race or background.

Picture #4

In this picture, we can see a hand (of a random person) releasing a white dove into the air. there is more birds flying at a distance, and the sky is painted orange. It depicts light emitting from dark shadows on both right and left edges.

We know that white dove symbolizes peace during war, and people used to use it for sending and receiving messages. Hence, we learn a good lesson from this picture, to spread peace and talk of good will for each other.

Therefore, we can say that the dove represents peace and freedom. The act of releasing the dove from the hand signifies the desire for peace and the hope for a better, harmonious future.

It also tells that no matter how bad the night of darkness goes, there comes the morning of freedom after it, for sure.
